Description PJ 2004-01-19 02:32:22 UTC

When using the imagecopyresize() and imagecopyresampled() functions, color distrotion occurs. This same code when ran on other systems performs normally. Only on my gentoo system does this distortion occur.

This occurs with the use flags GD, as well as GD External. This also occurs with CLI PHP and mod_php.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Run the attached script.

Actual Results:  
The image comes out funky

Expected Results:  
Make the image look the same, but smaller.

i had this bug once and i got around it by doing this:
$localpic = "some.jpg";
$im = imagecreatefromjpeg($localpic);
$w = 100;
$h = 100;
$thumb = imagecreatetruecolor($w,$h);
$specs = getimagesize($localpic);
imagecopyresized($thumb, $im, 0, 0, 0, 0, $w, $h, $specs[0], $specs[1]);
$thumbfile = $localpic ."_thumb.jpg";
ImageJpeg($thumb,$thumbfile,100);

basically when i used imagecreate() i got the crappy quality and when i used truecolor, it worked fine
